A Meditation’s Prayer: The Blog Post I Never Planned To Write

Last updated on: November 6, 2016 at 7:21 pm By Reba Riley

I try really, really hard to avoid writing during meditation, but every once in a while I simply MUST stop the silence with the words coming to me. The other morning I was at the park, being all still and quiet and Buddha-like (at least on the outside: the inside was more Game of Thrones) when… WHOOSH…a prayer rattled through me so fast I couldn’t have resisted if I tried. I grabbed for a pen and scrawled it down. I did not plan... Read more

A KINTSUGI Heart: How Broken Becomes Beautiful

Last updated on: November 3, 2016 at 5:21 pm By Reba Riley

“Kintsugi is a Japanese word meaning “to repair with gold”, and is normally applied to pottery.

Michael Leach, a practicing therapist, and I [Joni Sakurada Hotz] have taken this one step further, and applied it to the human heart: A heart that has been... Read more
